I just think they're ordsprog

Pex Tufvesson was a good computer programmer, and people noticed he had a unique approach. I just think they're flat out wrong. We literally have thousands of people working every day to improve not only the education of African-American kids, but other kids as well.

Reggaeton means the same thing to Latino youth as hip-hop does to African-American kids. We didn't have artists to look up to before. But the young kids now, they're looking at Daddy Yankee and Tego Calderon and Ivy Queen like kids in the American 'hood look up to 50 Cent or 2Pac. I'm representing for my culture and my people. It's their music.

We have some (African-American educators and leaders), but not enough. I know we're trying to add more certified minority teachers in our district. We're trying to get our own kids to go out, get their education, and come back here (to teach).

It used to be thousands of people hanging out on the streets, getting ready for the parade with their kids and stuff. Kids are all in school somewhere else now. It's not really a family event today. Just people who've been able to come back, working. It's really sad.

Charles Jones (1957-)

It is profoundly discouraging to learn that the share of African-American kids attending segregated schools has barely changed in the last decade since school choice policies were adopted in Michigan. We should all be concerned about the kind of society we are creating, in which more than half of African-American students in Michigan go to schools in which virtually none of their classmates are not also African-American.

I felt it was a privilege to be working with that population of kids, African Americans from the inner city. I got really attached to all of those kids and I'm still in touch with some of them. Now I see firsthand some of the disadvantages they face. It's very real. They need extra support. The forces these kids are up against are too much for them.

American kids are more cynical than any other groups of kids I've worked with. I think this is the case because we, as a country, have gotten a little confused about the family's values of standing up for what's right, apologizing when wrong and moral courage. People act according to their values when it's easy and everyone is getting along, but act totally against our values when we perceive someone is doing us wrong.

It was really exciting because they're a sibling group, they're African-American -- traditionally they're hard to place kids. And now these two kids have a forever family.

The smiles on the kids' faces, to have literally thousands of people cheering for them, it's just really exciting. It's just a great thing.

It's something I go to confession about. But I was a coach. I coached African-American kids. There's no way I think any less of people because of their skin color.

Nickelodeon and Kellogg engage in business practices that literally sicken our children. Their marketing tactics are designed to convince kids that everything they hear from their parents about food is wrong. It's a multimedia brainwashing and re-education campaign - and a disease-promoting one at that.

Michael Jacobson

There's a perception among African-American kids that they're not welcome here, that baseball is not for inner-city kids. It's not true, and I hate that the perception is out there.

We're actually very excited about this. And people throughout the system are excited about this. We are going to be providing extra help to literally hundreds of thousands of kids who are at risk of falling behind.

By working closely with these kids it makes you think as a teacher about things you can do to improve in those areas with all your kids.

Only the kids who get a postsecondary education are even keeping even in terms of income in their lives, and so forth. The rest are falling behind, year by year. Only about a twelfth of the Latino kids and maybe a sixth of the black kids are getting college degrees. The rest of them aren't getting ready for anything that's going to have much of a future in the American economy.
